Added 'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy main restricted universe' in my repository list and it started installing the upgrade.

Well, close, but no sigar...

Managed to install 8.04 and it kept hanging on the starting screen, unable to log in and do anything. I've gotten the follwing message a couple of times:

BusyBox v1.1.3 (debian1:1.1.3-5ubuntu9) Build in shell. Enter 'help'....

(initramfs)

So, i am clueless. I rebooted and manage to get in by using GRUB and started up in recovery mode wich told me the following:

Check root = bootarg cat /proc/cmdune
or missing modules, devices /proc/modules Is /dev
ALERT!: /dev/disk/by-uuid/8c9b8a04-54f0-4579-8e5d-5efec8afd02e does not exist. Dropping to shell.

Now i am using 8.04 now without that much problems, still i have no idear on how to solve this matter. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

What method did you use to upgrade? Also if you're new to Ubuntu, it's not suggested to run Hardy until it is released as it is still in development. You might find this forum thread useful:

Heya,

Thanks for the reply. I used "update-manager -d". It turned out be a problem with a NVidia graphics-card and after i pulled it out, Hardy installed normaly.

And, yes, i am still kinda new to Linux and figuring it out along the way. There is a lot of info to be found and i don't mind when it goes wrong sometimes. I am used to Windows, where there is always something wrong. So far the new version works fine, it is being updated daily and sends out status reports on a weekly basis, Hardly found any bugs so far.

Greetings,

Rickus
